A Weekend of Murder.
Similar to a murder
dinner but coupled with an overnight stay where the investigation
continues after breakfast and murderer is revealed just before lunch
the next day.
Dicing with Death
A Murder Mystery team game with a difference. This is a massive game
which extends only to the boundaries of your imagination! Play it in
a hotel or in a private venue. Extend the playing area to cover a
whole city or even a whole country!
Played on a huge playing board complete with (furry) dice and team
pieces. Teams are tasked to discover the facts behind a murder. Each
competing team must make their way around the playing board and into
five 'towers' avoiding the tricks and traps on the way.
When a team manages to ‘enter’ a tower on the board they may leave
the playing board and actually visit the room within the venue, or
they may visit areas in a city or within a country house hotel
estate where they may meet a suspect, search for a clue or carry out
a timed observation test. Teams must have their wits about them and
should have a good level of general knowledge.
At the end of the allotted time, which is around 2½ hours, the
winning team is judged to be the team with the closest answers to
three questions – Who committed this foul murder, why and how?
Dicing with Death encourages close co-operation and task sharing
within the teams, educates people in joint problem solving whilst
above all is far from being serious! - A perfect team building
event for the day time or evening? Well we think so.
The Guests From Hell
They are at your
party but they think they are at a family wedding! They are awful,
unspeakably boring and quite simply appalling! You supply us with
some background and we do the rest. As with all of our events,
tastefully of course. The head waiter of the venue is a Spanish
maniac, the waitress should have been put out to grass when
Zeppelins were all the rage. A fabulous evening of tastefully
performed mayhem and hilarity. The perfect choice for corporate
evenings.
The
Joke Restaurant
A great evening of
laughs and fun with our peculiar waiting staff. An unbeatable and
unique fun packed evening that can easily be customised to include
references to audience members etc. This event is usually linked
with The Guests From Hell.
A
'Royal' Medieval Banquet
An evening of fun fun fun. Meet Good King Neadly Beanstroker and
Queen Beryl along with their family, Prince Battfondler and the
Princess Wibble. Dance, sing and gasp in wonder as Merlin shows you
his credentials. Uproarious fun for the whole family. Suitable for
audiences of 100+ at bigger venues, a great corporate night out.
BLITZ TIME TOURS
Welcome to somewhere
different
Have
you ever considered that a lot of Blitz events are set in the past?
Well, it occurred to us, how does the audience get there! Following
years of extensive (and expensive) research we now have the answer.
By time machine. (obvious really!)
Not
only that, but we have built one to transport your clients to the
era where their event is taking place. Although the time machine was
constructed to transport people to our
'Royal Medieval
Banquet',
whether your event is a Murder Mystery or a Custom event tailored to
your requirements or whatever event you choose, Blitz will fly you
there.
On
arrival at the Time Terminal the time travellers exchange their
tickets for boarding passes at the check in which is manned by Blitz
Time Tours Hostesses, and wait in a departure lounge, with bar
facilities of course. When their transport is called they board the
time machine for a short trip to their destination. Inside the ship
the travellers experience a sound, light and video journey through
space and time. When they disembark they exit into their chosen
event and step back in time into a different world, a world of the
past where things are not always as they seem.
This
fantastic new innovation is offered as an 'add on' to virtually
any Blitz event. As it is not always possible to land our time
machine at some venues due to space restrictions please check with
your Blitz office before offering this service.
Oh Yes
It Is!
Introducing our
‘Corporate Kids Pantomime’. How does it work? Well, we will perform
a specially written 90 minute panto to the kids whilst the Mums and
Dads etc relax in the bar and perhaps have lunch or maybe use other
facilities.
We will bring in the
stage, lighting and sound and of course the cast, the venue just
provides the space and the audience. This service is on offer to all
our corporate and venue clients on either an exclusive or a ‘mix and
match’ basis.
For venues, this event
is most cost effective if it is planned to last for at least 5
performances on consecutive days without dismantling the stage and
equipment.
Because of the popularity of this event we have to operate on a
‘first come first served’ basis for available dates. If you would
like to hear more, please contact us and we can arrange a meeting or
run you through the details.
Paparazzi
Blitz will supply any
number of paparazzi characters complete with costume, press badges,
camera’s flashes etc.
Each character will
meet and greet your guests interacting with them on an improvised
basis as situations unfold. The characters are noisy and funny
without being repetitive, insulting or invasive. If you wish to
include any guests for ‘special attention’ this can be easily
arranged with Blitz by e-mail before the event.
It is best to restrict
this part of an event to entry to the venue only to prevent the
guests becoming overwhelmed by the characters and to avoid over
exposure.
Scottish Night - Light
There
will be traditional music from violin, 12 string guitar, piano and
singers. Interspersed by short recitations.
A
proposed running order of the evening may be as follows:
· Gather
- The celebrants gather and mingle before dinner is announced.

· Parade
of the Haggis - The chef, carrying in the Haggis, follows the piper
in a more or les dignified procession through or around the room
ending up at the table. The Chef lays the Haggis on it’s ‘groaning
trencher’ before the host.
· Address
to the Haggis – This will be normally performed by a guest.
· The
main course is served. During this course there will be traditional
music from violin and accordion/piano and guitar.
· Tam
o’ Shanter 1790 – Rather than recite the whole of this massive piece
in the traditional Blitz will perform a shorter version from the
wife’s point of view! Injecting humour wherever possible.
· The
desert course is served
· Holy
Willies Prayer - Following this course and during coffee Blitz will
perform a short version Holy Willies Prayer dressed in a nightgown a
night cap and carrying a candle lamp.
· Auld

singing of the traditional song in the ‘proper’ way.
